Fans of The Beatles were very sad to hear of the death of Heinz Edelmann who passed away in Stuttgart on Tuesday July 21st aged 75. Heinz was held in the highest regard by The Beatles who enjoyed a professional friendship with him for many years.

Yellow Submarine would not be regarded as an animation classic if it were not for the astonishing design concepts that he brought to the film, which inspired everyone connected to the production to create something truly remarkable.

Heinz’s infectious enthusiasm and sparkling wit was much commented on by those who had the good fortune to meet him.

Paul McCartney’s returned to the Ed Sullivan Theater for an outdoor performance on the theater’s marquee yesterday captured on The Late Show With David Letterman drew a crowd that packed Broadway from Times Square to Columbus Circle.

Fans were treated not only to “Get Back” and “Sing The Changes” taped for the Late Show broadcast but to a veritable mini-concert, as Paul and the band thundered through “Coming Up,” “Band On The Run,” “Let Me Roll It,” “Helter Skelter” and “Back In The USSR.”

As the New York Daily News reported in a cover story “Paul McCartney still made them twist and shout when he returned to the Ed Sullivan Theater 45 years after he and The Beatles first performed there.”

Follow The Beatles from their earliest days to their triumphant Ed Sullivan Show appearance and beyond. Join them in the studio at Abbey Road and experience dreamscapes that put you inside the psychedelic era.

The release date for the game is 09/09/09 and is available on Xbox 360, Wii and Playstation 3.
